Will this help with rust/iron issues? It's turning my grout and everything orange.

Yes!! It's amazing for this. I finally stopped breaking my back and drying out my skin with cleaning solvents because I too have iron in my water which used to cause the orange film everywhere, haven't had a problem since i swapped the shower head! I'm very pleased with it

I didn't have the rust issue but the filter didn't help at all with the bad sulphur odor like it was suppose to...wouldn't buy another one!

I don't think i understand your question , is the culligan wall mount causing rust /iron issues? It isn't for me , so i don't know what is going on or why the filter would be doing that or the chrome itself shouldn't be. I have clean water coming out of mine and no orange coloring on anything.

The orange tip wasn't easy to remove but no impossible try hot water work for me don't force it the metal can be damage if you don't want to risk it just paint it to avoid any unnecessary damage

Those are minerals found in your tap water. They are ugly, but are no health hazard. Orange would indicate iron in your tap water. After it has cooled some, pour some vinegar into the heating pan and let sit for a while. It should loosen up any of the mineral deposits and easily wipe clean again. You could use distilled water, then you should not have any deposits to worry about.

yes, to much iron will be rust color. that said do you have galvanized or iron pipes? then it could be actual rust, not good. if this water is from a well, it might be just to much iron in the water. check your water with a test kit .

Hi, Sorry to hear that, Yes, my experience was horrible with that product too. I tried getting rid of it just on one area (stairs) and I simply used a very hard-bristle metal brush. I don't really know if there are solvents or something better, I would ask @ home depot. Sorry.Hope you asked for a refund, I sent Rust-Oleum a dissatisfaction email and they refunded the product price. Not a complete consolation since the time & effort is more expensive, but it's something.

I goofed and put the curtain in a pail of water with a touch of bleach to remove some mildew at the bottom of the curtain. Unfortunately, the bleach reacted with the metal rings and now I have rust stains all over the curtain. I cant get the rust out, so I'm ordering this exact curtain over again.

Wish I could help, Steve...we are not using it for RO, and I'm not good at identifying metals. But it's starting to show rust a bit...if that helps.

You betcha! I have white tiles with black grout in my kitchen and with a mop the grout gets grayish, but with this shampooer in hard floor mode my 14-yr old grout and tile looks like new.

Depends if it is dirt or if the grout is stained. Won't lift staining. I use a coarser pad [not the usual terry-cloth].

I believe that I remember if you had rust, you needed to treat that first. I would contact the manufacturer for more info, I did not have that problem, but I can tell you it is a GREAT product for painting over bathroom tiles!

If you have rust stains it works GREAT!! They go away almost instantly... I love it and use it on my fiberglass tub enclosure, my sinks and my toilets. Hope this helps...

If you just got it. You need to rinse the main filter if have not yet. When I first set mine up itt took some time to filter, but if your's is not new, you have to scrub the orange oxidation off the ceramic stone at the top. Hope this helps.

Not this. Just use a tile and grout cleaner and those Magic eraser sponges are awesome. Don't use simple green cleaner because it colors the grout!

Hello preferably use distilled waterbut the iron has a system Vents Stay-Clean system and if you could use tap waterAn anti-calcium system Prevents steam vents clogged by Reducing the sediment build-up in the vaporizing chamber of the iron.Thank You!!

Same problem here - I read it is a hardwood floor cleaner buildup. I kept cleaning it more because initially I thought it was dirty. I've been using Orange Glo religiously and now I find out it leaves this nasty film. After doing some reasearch it looks like IFT (Intensive Floor Treatment) product will remove the film. I read a post saying that windex worked well too. I'm about to give windex a try before my guests arrive this weekend to what looks like a very dirty floor.

I'm not sure if we've had that issue with these mops, but other similar mops we've used in the past have gotten rusty. Maybe put some CLR on it to loosen any rust?
